From the Editor August 2020

Find your reading glasses, grab a bevragino and take a seat; there is some seriously good reading material in this August edition of the Banksia Bulletin.
 
Heartfelt community messages of thanks? Check. A refresh on how epic last year’s Fevvor X Rainmakers dinners were? Check. A new Centenarian? Check. Trivia Night report? Check. A tractor over 100 years old? Check. Tales of the Dangin Cricket Club from the teller of the nest tales, Bullit Hadlow? Huge check.
 
All of these submissions of content are wildly exciting! We thoroughly enjoy receiving, reading and publishing all of your writings—and we even provide a pretty decent (and very patient) editing service. So if you have a story to share or a yarn to weave, please do!
 
The series of upcoming event flyers is also heading towards is normal full capacity. Next Thursday here at the Quairading CRC we’re hosting a watercolour workshop with The Sketch Society—this workshop was sold out but a couple of spots have just opened up, move quick if you want to snag one (page 15)! The following week we’re also hosting a new event (at the Community Building) that we’re calling Conversation with a Councillor (page 19). There is literally nothing better and more productive than a good old chin wag, so come on down and be a part of it. We’ll be providing some light dinner and refreshments too! Win—win.
 
Looking through to September (and pages 23—25 in this Bankisa Bulletin) we’re egg flippin’ excited to be promoting Fervor’s return to Quairading (thank to Quairading Rainmakers Inc) with two special dinners on Friday 11th & Saturday 12th September. Inside scoop: tickets are moving fast so if you want to beat FOMO, hop to it. Tickets and more info online: www.trybooking.com/643185
 
Bevragino time!
